Chicago-Kent
College of Law and Loyola
University Chicago School of Law jointly sponsor and host the Chicago
Intellectual Property Colloquium. The Colloquium promotes discussion
of a range of issues in intellectual property and cyberspace law.
Each year, during the Spring academic semester, Chicago-Kent and Loyola
invite six nationally renowned intellectual property scholars to Chicago
to present and discuss their current research projects before intellectual
property faculty from Chicago-area law schools, prominent intellectual
property practitioners, and selected students from Chicago-Kent and
Loyola ("Chicago IP Colloquium
Fellows").

These presentations usually take place on every second
Tuesday during the Spring semester from 4:10 p.m. to 5:50 p.m., with
the location alternating between Chicago-Kent and Loyola.

If you are a student at Chicago-Kent or Loyola who

Student Fellows meet with Colloquium Faculty from Chicago-Kent and Loyola
one week before each presentation to discuss the draft paper that the
invited scholar will present. To read more about the Colloquium
Faculty from Chicago-Kent and Loyola, please click here.
